Let’s get one thing straight: Elon Musk didn’t just crash the Silicon Valley cocktail party—he lit it on fire, hopped on a SpaceX rocket, and waved goodbye while flipping off the legacy institutions (Boeing, Lockheed, etc.) that had been feeding off taxpayer scraps for decades. And while the woke media pearl-clutches its way through every offbeat tweet and political alignment, they conveniently ignore the goddamn fact that Elon practically resurrected American dominance in space. Read those last five words again.
I’m talking straight-up necromancer-level resuscitation here. Before Musk came along, NASA—yes, the agency that once made the Soviets eat moon dust—was paying Russia to taxi our astronauts into orbit like some galactic Uber, using leftover Soviet tin cans from the Cold War.
Imagine that. The most powerful country on Earth, Merica!, is outsourcing its space program to a nation that still thinks fax machines are cutting edge. You can’t make this up.
Then comes Elon, with more brass in his balls than a Marine on D-Day, and he says, “Screw that.” He builds SpaceX, against every piece of government bureaucracy, media mockery, and industry sabotage. And there were many naysayers, many serving astronauts said he was crazy.
I remember interviewing astronaut Scott Kelly, who said:
“Elon proved us all wrong, and reminded me to always keep an open mind. We thought he was crazy to reuse a first-stage rocket and that it would never work.”
Always keep an open mind…great advice.
Now? We’re launching American astronauts from American soil, on American rockets. SpaceX isn’t just private industry succeeding—it’s a middle finger to complacency. And he did it without a bloated government piggybank. That’s leadership. That’s spine. That’s vision.

But wait—this lunatic genius didn’t stop there. Starlink. Holy hell, Batman. Thousands of low-Earth orbit satellites beaming internet across the globe, from war zones in Ukraine to the middle of godforsaken nowhere. You know who’s using Starlink? U.S. Special Forces. Ukrainian freedom fighters. Emergency responders. It’s not just Wi-Fi, it’s modern warfare infrastructure. You think China likes that? Hell no. Elon gave us the high ground. He turned cyberspace into space space—and made America safer without a single shot fired.
Yet what does the media focus on? His memes. His love for a dog-themed crypto. And gasp—his willingness to talk to Trump. That’s what sends them into convulsions. Not that he built two generational companies, but that he doesn’t parrot their soy-soaked narratives. They can’t stand that a person who actually builds things doesn’t give a damn about cancel culture or virtue signals.
Look, Elon’s not doing DOGE to make a few extra bucks. The guy could buy the Moon if he wanted. He’s trolling because he can, and because somewhere deep in that Martian-bound brain of his, he sees a future where decentralized currencies actually help people. It’s the same reason he’s obsessed with colonizing Mars. The man thinks in centuries. Generational safety nets? He built his. He’s building ours next.
Let’s stop pretending like Elon Musk isn’t one of the single most important private citizens in American history right now. He made space cool again. He made America strong again. And while the woke mob screeches on social media he’s lighting up the sky with rockets, satellites, and a vision.
You want to hate him? Fine. Just make sure you do it from the comfort of your high-speed Starlink connection while watching a live SpaceX launch on a feed that wouldn’t exist without him.
Three words: Elon. Built. This.
